If any one or more of the provisions of this Note are determined to be unenforceable, in whole or in part, for any reason, the remaining provisions shall remain fully operative.

All payments of principal and interest on this Note shall be paid in the legal currency of the United States. The Borrower waives presentment for payment, protest, and notice of protest and nonpayment of this Note.

No renewal or extension of this Note, delay in enforcing any right of the Lender under this Note, or assignment by Creditor of this Note shall affect the liability or the obligations of the Borrower. All rights of the Creditor under this Note are cumulative and may be exercised concurrently or consecutively at the Creditor’s option.

This Note shall be construed in accordance with the laws of the State of California.

Signed this 21st day of December, 2010, at San Francisco, CA.
